[Bug 70255] Echo-notification-alert - unclear definition of alert
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70255 --- Comment #4 from Matthew Flaschen mflasc...@wikimedia.org --- (In reply to Lokal_Profil from comment #3) Thanks. I've now done that and it clarified a bit. From this I instead conclude that: * message = anything triggered by Flow (or at least new posts on watched topics) * alerts = anything triggered by non-Flow (including messages left on the users talk page) * notifications = any of the above. Yes, I believe that's accurate. If that is the case then alerts essentially become system messages (which is clearly distinguishable from notifications). I would say that e.g. a mention is both an alert and a notification. However, I understand a literal translation of 'alert' may not work in all languages. Even so it would be good to have a clear definition of the three terms and how they differ from the Echo-team. Can I clarify the above further? Our team (Core Features) works on both Flow and Echo. Exactly the same thing was an issue previously with the new Flow concepts https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67967 Suppression is not a new Flow concept. It has existed for regular wikitext pages (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Suppression) for quite some time. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70255 --- Comment #1 from Lokal_Profil lokal_pro...@hotmail.com --- Do I understand things right if: * message = discussion messages * notifications = all other types of updates (thanks, mentions, links) * alerts = the indicator that you have new notifications+messages (anything non-flow) Currently Hovering over the notification number says Your notifications The flyout then says Alerts followed by a list of the notifications which ends with all notifications. I.e. it is still extremely unclear why the Alerts terminology is needed why it cannot simply be called notification. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

It sounds like you don't have any Flow messages yet. Try watching a Flow page (even just temporarily to see what I mean) like https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Flow . -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
